Gu Yue Fang Hotel: Traditional guesthouse

When I arrived in Lijiang I headed for the Old Town as this is the must area to stay in. I first headed towards the International Youth Hostel Lijiang and was met near the hostel by a woman standing in front of her guesthouse which she said was Y100/night. It looked very nice from the outside but I said that I would check out the hostel first which I did and which I never bothered as the rooms were grotty with no windows and mould stains on the wall plus it was Y108/night. So I headed back to the guesthouse which is a lovely wooden building that surrounds a central courtyard with balconies. I took a room up on the second floor which was very large with a huge doublebed, TV, coat-stand, 2 chairs, table, bedside tables and with a clean bathroom that featured a hot water shower cubicle. The lady who runs the place doesn't speak much English and the only thing with the room is that the walls are only the width of wooden planks i.e. very thin which means that you can here everything that your neighbours do! Apart from that, it's a lovely place to stay and pretty cheap.

Courier: Comfortable, affordable Inn

This is a lovely place to stay if it is very cold as it was when we were in Lijiang. It had air-conditioning, free internet, television, water nice bathroom. Great location.
Breakfast was not much: congee, boiled egg and Chinese bread. Location excellent.

No 11 Inn: Friendliest place in Lijiang

We dropped into this place after having a bad experience at a popular guesthouse nearby. We were greeted by Peter and his beautiful husky dog Liang-liang.

We were completely blown away by the comfortable, tasteful and good value rooms which are split across two stories with a large bed on the top floor and bathroom and television lounge on the bottom floor.

Peter is great at providing impartial advice about things to do around Lijiang and, as an avid cyclist, he will take you on insightful tours of anywhere you would like to visit in the Lijiang region and beyond on new and well-conditioned bicycles.

Unique Quality: Peter's philosophy is to have everything free, except for the room of course. So there is:
Free clothes washing
Free computer
Free wi-fi,
Free water cooler inside the room
Free maps
and, something no other guesthouse in China has, free cuddles from a beautiful husky.

Ornamental Cherry Guesthouse: Cheap Naxi Hostel

As we entered Lijiang Old Town we were greeted by a young girl who asked us whether we needed accommodation. She then led us to a small Guesthouse which was very close to the entrance (via some steps). The people who owned the guesthouse were Naxi and they were very welcoming providing us with tea on arrival. Breakfast which consisted of dumplings was provided at a cost of 10 Yuan each. We had a room with television,its own shower and toilet all for 100 Yuan. Unfortunately, it was very cold and although there was an electric blanket on the bed there was not a heater or air-conditioning in the room. It was far too cold for us and we only spent one day here. For those of you wanting something cheap and not minding “roughing it”. 100 Yuan for double room, own toilet/shower.

Unique Quality: "Authentic" Naxi guesthouse

Lijiang Gu Ye Fang Hotel: Didn't stay here

I didn't stay here, but I believe it's near the police station. It looked quite pleasant from the outside.

Lijiang Aromatic Villa: Lijiang Clean and Cheap

Nice and cheap (100 yuan for a double room, 120 for the room upstairs) but tight on space. Get to know your roommate well through the glass bathroom walls!
